NEW MAYOR.

November 10, 1986

MONTREAL — NEW MAYOR. Labor lawyer Jean Dore, 41, was elected mayor of Montreal Sunday in the first city race in 32 years in which incumbent Mayor Jean Drapeau was not a candidate. Dore, who heads the Montreal Citizens' Movement, took two-thirds of the vote over Claude Dupras, a veteran Progressive Conservative Party organizer and Drapeau's hand-picked successor as Civic Party leader. Dore has promised to bring democracy to city call after the decades of Drapeau's autocratic style. In other races, Montreal Citizens' Movement candidates were elected or leading in 48 districts. Election turnout: about 50 percent.
